The formula to calculate the Degree of Saturation is:
\[ \text{Degree of Saturation} = \frac{\text{Volume of Water}}{\text{Volume of Voids}} \]
Degree of Saturation is the ratio of the volume of water to the volume of voids. Volume of Water is the space that water takes in a container. Volume of Voids is the space captured by voids.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Degree of Saturation} = \frac{2}{6} \approx 0.333333333333333 \]
The Degree of Saturation is approximately 0.333333333333333.
| Volume of Water (cubic meters) | Degree of Saturation |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.166666666666667 |
| 1.5 | 0.250000000000000 |
| 2 | 0.333333333333333 |
| 2.5 | 0.416666666666667 |
| 3 | 0.500000000000000 |
